RadLex and Standardization of ontology for radiology procedures

@Dymshyts
Yes, you got it!
My First and fundamental question is: Where should we store the fact that the patient underwent thyroid MRI, in Measurement? in Procedure?
I’d thought that this should have been stored in Procedure.
Now, we want to standardize the radiology procedure across the world. I want to follow RSNA (Radiological Society of North America), which built RadLex to standardize these first. Then, we need to store these data into Measurement because of OMOP-CDM’s rule. That’s why I’m confused. And that’s why I want to discuss with other OHDSI members.

@QI_omop
Yes, that’s why I proposed update of the NOTE table.

And recently, we’re developing extension model for radiology image itself, too.
